Funding tools to impress investors

If you're showing your business plan to bankers, investors, or other lenders, you better make sure it's got all the information they're going to need to make a decision. Business Plan Pro is packed with tools to make sure your plan is complete and accurate, and even includes a database to help you find venture capital!

Matches the format preferred by banks, investors, and SBA lenders

Business Plan Pro uses a format that meets the most stringent requirements of banks, SBA lenders, angel investors, and venture capitalists

Step-by-step financials

Expert guidance and a simple interface take you through every step of every financial table in Business Plan Pro. Detailed instructions and explanations ensure that you build a solid plan. And the table wizard gives you feedback about your numbers to help you create a business plan that will get you the funding you need.

Real-world financial data

Business Plan Pro leverages more than 9,000 industry profiles to give you insight into how your business compares against similar companies in your industry. The most recent data from your industry gets pulled right into your plan, so you can show investors that your numbers are on target, or explain why they differ.

The numbers investors want to see

For the investor, there is only one flow into the company that matters--the investment--and there are only two flows back out as returns--dividends and equity valuation.

The Investment Analysis table presents the numbers from the point of view of the investor. While equity valuation really matters only when the investor cashes out, most investors will want to see your estimates before they put their funds into your company.

Research your funding options

You could scour the Internet for a week and not find all the information we've amassed in our Venture Capital database. Over 1,200 profiles of venture capital firms worldwide are included. The database is searchable, so you can look for firms by business type, funding stage, location, or funding need.

"Without Palo Alto Software we never would have been able to write such an amazing business plan. That plan was able to secure our start up funding."Anthony Santarsiero

"Palo Alto Software helped me organize my thoughts and focus on a strategy. We used our business plan to obtain credit from a local bank in August of 2009. Credit was incredibly tight at the time and I am certain that the professional presentation and level of detail of our business plan helped us secure financing."Maria Walley

"Business Plan Pro helped me greatly in creating our 3 and 5 year business plan model when I needed to refinance our unsecured debt with our bank as well as recruit and assemble our new current Board of Directors which have both continued to be very supportive. We have actually exceeded the growth I projected growing our business by 20% last year."Todd Walker
